Kingman Delivers 14th-Inning Homer to Lift Mets 1-0
Dave Kingman belted a 14th inning homer for the New York Mets in a 1-0 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The long homer was his 23rd of the season and his first at home since May 28, as he voiced frustration with a .240 average and streaky days. Dodgers reliever Charlie Hough called the pitch a straight knuckleball and noted the lack of spin. In other NL action, Philadelphia edged San Francisco 3-2 on Dave Cashs sacrifice fly in the ninth to push across the eventual winning run.
